Hi all,

I am currently investigating a great pdf resource from www.verypdf.com, a tool that basically builds your pdf from an arbitrary list of graphical resources.

The tool has a lot to offer despite a simplistic API including support
for a bunch of file formats (multipage tif, jpeg ...) and
pdf 128 encryption.

But i have been unable to run the code from vfp.

The VB demo (see code below) works fine within VB6.

VFP unsuccessful code

DECLARE LONG VeryCreate IN "verywrite.dll" (STRING lpFileName)
DECLARE VeryClose IN "verywrite.dll" (LONG VERY_ID)
DECLARE LONG VeryAddImage IN "verywrite.dll" (LONG VERY_ID ,STRING lpFileName)

** returns an error message
** TOO MANY ARGUMENTS
?  verycreate("test2.pdf")

VB successful code (from VB6)

Private Declare Function VeryCreate Lib "verywrite.dll" 
(ByVal lpFileName As String) As Long
Private Declare Sub VeryClose Lib "verywrite.dll" (ByVal id As Long)
Private Declare Function VeryAddImage Lib "verywrite.dll" 
(ByVal id As Long, ByVal lpFileName As String) As Long

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim filename As String
Dim id As Long

filename = "create.pdf"
id = VeryCreate(filename)
filename = "multipage.tif"
ret = VeryAddImage(id,filename)
...

Any hint or trick is welcome. If VB can, then VFP should...
